14.08.2022, 11:36

Members of the Castle Guard are traditional participants of the NATO Days in Ostrava & Czech Air Force Days. This year they return with a popular motorcycle unit and an exhibition of contemporary and historical equipment and weapons. 

Visitors can once again look forward to the display of the convoy of the highest national or foreign representatives. Members of the motorcycle unit will demonstrate their skills on BMW R-1200 RT-P and BMW R-1150 RT / GS motorcycles, they will be accompanied by Land Rover Discovery and Škoda Superb cars. All of them will be presented also on the static display, next to historical models of motorcycles as well as contemporary equipment and weapons. 

"Due to its other commitments, the motorcycle unit of the Castle Guard could not participate at the last year's NATO Days. We are glad that after this forced break they are returning with their elaborate choreography," highlighted Zbyněk Pavlačík, Chairman of Jagello 2000. "People perceive the Castle Guard more through ceremonies and we rarely see its members at similar events. We appreciate it all the more that we will have them here again." 

The Castle Guard officially represents one of the units of the Armed Forces of the Czech Republic. It is specific in that it is directly subordinate to the Military Office of the President of the Republic and is therefore not part of the Army of the Czech Republic. The Castle Guard has almost a thousand soldiers, who must meet both general requirements for accepting people into the armed forces, as well as specific ones - such as, for example, a certain height or the absence of beards for guard units.
